Years ago the whole world listened to the same music...but today with thousands of outlets to be heard by the masses it's a "free for all" of MEGA MAGNITUDES! Turning your nose at what you don't like will not change what has happened, or being an Egotistical Purist as well. I say, try to fit in somewhere, find YOUR Niche, embrace others talents, try to extract and absorb from what you see & hear musically and incorporate it into what YOU do somehow. CREATIVNESS is KING today, love it or leave it, Put it all together for your your own style of multitasking to make todays audiences happy. It's all out there for you to grab......
go for it while you still can

Donny.....this was an incredibly insightful observation/commentary. I'm glad you posted it. It started me thinking (where I wasn't thinking before) about how much and how quickly the music has changed around me these past few years. I see that it can be liberating or challenging depending on which road one wants to take. Music, it seems, is like life....constant changes, some slow, some abrupt, but always changing....along with the audiences.

I'm surprised no one else commented on what you wrote here.
